    There is no "uninstall" exe in the program folder and Windows Uninstall cannot proceed. Any suggestion hot to uninstall? Thank you!

    Normally 64 bit installer creates the same entries as the 32 bit one. So "Uninstall WhiteStarUML" should be there. If anything went wrong during installation you may try to install it once again and see if anything changes.

    Manual uninstallation would require calling :

    whitestaruml /unregserver
    "regsvr32 /u" on every plugin dll in modules subdir
    C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\RegAsm.exe /u" on ParserCore.dll
    deleting WhiteStarUML program dir
    deleting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WhiteStarUML registry key

    If you do not mind some junk in the Registry (it is harmless) or a Registry cleaning program can fix it for you then only delete the program dir.

    Hello Janusz, just to let you know that the 'Uninstall' dialog window from start to finish shows all messages rekated to installation not unistall. It kept telling me that I was installing a (new instance of) WhiteStarUML while it was actually doing the uninstall. So may want to look at the messages and change them to acordingly.

    Unfortunately the installer is created with a bundled (limited) edition of InstallAware. The uninstaller is generated automatically and it does not allow any customization of dialog windows and even other features like modify/repair do not work at all. So you should just assume that the "installing" word means that the installer program is just working.
